Iberdrola, through its Brazilian subsidiary Neoenergia, will build the wind energy complex in Paraíba in northeastern Brazil

Composed of 18 wind farms that will add a total installed capacity of over 565 megawatts (MW), the new wind energy development will come online between 2022 and 2023 and will create 1,200 job openings during its construction phase.

The project will promote the creation of local job openings, as more than 1,200 workers are expected to be hired during the construction works. Brazil will become, upon the commissioning of the Paraíba complex, the country with the highest wind power capacity of the Iberdrola group in Latin America.

The Paraíba complex, which will come online between 2022 and 2023, will be located near the city of Santa Luzia, in one of the windiest areas of the Americas. This large renewable installation will consist of a total of 18 wind farms, three of which are already operating — Canoas, Lagoa I, and Lagoa II — and another 15 are in different phases of development. In the meeting, the state executive head presented the economic potential of Paraíba and the state’s capacity for renewable energy generation.

“We have one of the best solarimetric indexes in Brazil, a great capacity for wind energy generation, and we already have parks being implemented in the state, in addition to investments in transmission lines,” he reports.

The governor enriched the discussion with details about the Cabo Branco Tourism Hub projects, where tourist activities and even resorts are under development. “Paraíba is open for new investments, and we are ready to contribute in the best possible way,” said Governor João Azevedo.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

While the U.S. still faces limitations in deep space, China is developing unprecedented technology with strategic satellites that maintain communication with the far side of the Moon and aims for dominance by 2030.

In Botswana, a salt flat of up to 16,000 km² that was once an African megalake spends months as an absolute white desert, but during the rainy season it transforms into a shallow sea that reappears from nowhere and can be seen from space in the middle of southern Africa.

The Blood Falls of Antarctica hide a living ecosystem trapped under the ice for over 2 million years, where microbes survive without light, without oxygen, and without ever having seen the Sun.

Bavarian archaeologists unearthed a medieval skeleton that had an articulated iron hand in place of its left arm, and the discovery reveals that doctors were already creating sophisticated prosthetics over 500 years ago.

The CEO of Honor in Spain says that smartphones will change with AI, foldables, and even robot phones; the component crisis is making cheap models more expensive in 2026 and shifting the focus to premium.

Mercedes has created an electric motor with over 1,000 horsepower that weighs only 12.7 kilograms — less than a suitcase and with the highest power density ever recorded.

At over 8 meters tall and resembling a trunk, this creature dominated the Earth 400 million years before the dinosaurs — and science still doesn’t know what it was.

China inaugurates a 24 km monster that is a bridge, tunnel, and museum at the same time — and 90,000 cars pass through it every day.

Oil at the center of global disputes and historical transformations

Brazil already has the largest electric buses in daily operation in the world: Goiânia has put 28-meter giants from Volvo on the streets to transform urban transport, placing the country at the center of a new showcase for urban mobility.

Every time a river flows into the sea, an amount of energy equivalent to a 120-meter waterfall is silently wasted, but Japan has just inaugurated the world’s first power plant that captures this waste and transforms it into electricity 24 hours a day without sun, wind, or fuel.

Silicon Valley bets on a 100-hour battery that uses carbon and oxygen to store renewable energy for days and could turn a little-known chemical system into an alternative to critical metal batteries to tackle prolonged blackouts.

Canadian engineers want to compress air in underground caverns and build plants of up to 500 MW that function as giant lungs to store renewable energy for hours and stabilize entire electrical grids.

British engineers cool air until it turns into liquid, store energy for weeks, and create an “invisible battery” capable of sustaining the power grid when the wind stops and the sun disappears.
